Need help with Outlook custom forms

[JPMiller]

I work for a small company using Office 2003
we use roaming profiles, and an exchange server for outlook
We need to track job numbers within our emails, so we've designed a custom form that uses a combo box to select or fill in job numbers
this also attaches a job number line within the body of the message
Ive tried redoing the form many times and I still have issues
First of all it seems to omit the signature that is selected by the users
and when you recieve an email with an attachment, it is invisible when you go to forward it to someone else
Im hoping someone here has experience with Outlook custom forms, and or HTML that could possibly give me some hints as to what I'm doing wrong

when you say your users have a signature

Are you saying you have an open text field (preferrably multi-line) for open text, and its not including the signature they have selected as defalt within Outlook?
Are you using a custom field for this text, or are you using the "Message Body" field?

Regarding the forwarding I think you're running into 'One offf form" problems, I used to deal with these quite a bit but (thank god!! I HATE them!) haven't had to deal with them for a few years.

... did I mention I hate outlook forms?

You and me both...

When we set up outlook for the users we open "tools", "options", "mail format", and "signatures"
Then we open a web page from our server and copy and paste a pre-made signature into that open saignature box
It goes to the bottom of our open message body

have you tried a standard text signature?
maybe its having an issue with the html in the custom form.

are you using a standard body field on the form anywhere?

that sig wont show up anywhere but the body field

Function Item_Send()
Dim objItem
Set objItem = Application.ActiveInspector.CurrentItem

If objItem.HTMLBody <> "" then
objItem.HTMLBody = objItem.HTMLBody & "<br><br><font face=Arial size=-2 color=#339933>TA Project Number:" & " " & (item.userproperties.find("projectnumber"))
End if

End Function

----------------------------
This is the code for the form
It relates to a combo box we have set up for tracking project numbers
Does the code itself look right?
